Poland does have the greatest piano composer of all-time: Chopin.

edit: oops I see he was mentioned below.

Absolutely incredible writer. Solaris is especially fantastic, but the invincible is also good.

They’re doing great work fighting NATO right now, and taking out the anti-semitic trash from europe.

You can use xz and unxz . It works exactly like gzip, except it uses the same compression algorithm as 7zip, and it comes on most systems.

Get a good idea for an app you’d like to make, then learn android jetpack compose. Then you’ll learn kotlin, and have a cool app to show off to ppl.

The one this comes from, Macbeth, makes even less sense. The prophecy is “not of woman borne”, which for some reason caesarian sections don’t count??

At least a solid third of alabama deserves a bonk.

Seems like a lot of anglo standards and measurements are done to make everything as illogical and confusing as possible. NASA wrecked a Mars robot entry over imperial unit conversions iirc.

ISO8601 makes the most sense: general to specific, year-month-day, and it sorts on computers well too. I forget which countries use that general to specific format, I think Chinese language does tho.

Our deepest fear

“Are you up for a discussion???”

“Not up for a debate? I will return in 5 minutes.”

It really fell off a cliff during the 2016 US presidential election. Went from standard liberal brain-rot to a right wing tabloid.

Theory to civilize the mind at the same time as the body savaging.

Currently re-reading Liu Shiaoqi - how to be a good communist.

For some reason, everyone I’ve met with a polisci degree uses it to be confidently wrong.

This video is a good intro, created by some swedish communist student org.

Also, this one. Insane traffic in Los Angeles, 1993.

Future ppl are truly going to consider this time a dystopia.

This reminds me of Andre Gorz - the social ideology of the motor car . Essentially:

The invention of the personal automobile, and destruction of public transportation, was a triumph of capitalist drug-peddling; suddenly, all at once, everyone’s personal mobility became dependent on a single, new commodity, gasoline. Without it, we are unable to function, since urban sprawl and suburbanization now means we can’t even walk to work if we wanted to.

And going by time, by spreading everything out, it ended up taking the same amount of time to get to work, in 1900 as in 1980.

That’s giving them a biiit too much credit. More like,
